USA Networks‘ Emmy and Golden Globe-winning “Mr. Robot” is coming to a close in a final fourth season that arrives this fall. The buzz on the show seems to be long gone, but maybe the series served its purpose? Rami Malek wasn’t much of a name before the show started, though there were some nice small turns in arthouse movies like “The Master” and “Ain’t Them Bodies Saints,” but “Mr. Robot” arguably helped pave the way to Malek’s Oscar-win for “Bohemian Rhapsody,” earning praise and winning the actor the 2016 Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series. “Mr. Robot” helped put USA Networks on the map in the era of Emmy-thirsty Peak TV and its creator Sam Esmail, certainly got a boost, and went on to directed the psychological thriller “Homecoming,” starring Julia Roberts, for Amazon and has several new projects in the pipeline. “Mr. Robot” helped everyone live their best life and now it’s coming to a close.
